Talks between Government and the Opposition to re-introduce the Anti-Gang Bill in Parliament to stem the country’s rising crime and murders ran into another dead end yesterday, as Government was thrown on its back foot with a number of surprises by the Opposition which they did not cater for.

Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley says Government became aware of the recent plot to disrupt Carnival 2018 festivities by persons who subscribe to the “kind of behaviour we’ve been accustomed to in the 21st century,” through ongoing monitoring and the support of various stakeholders in the effort...

ISIS has alleged a group of its “fighters” here in T&T was arrested on February 8 “while they were preparing a mega-attack during the night stretching from 13 to 14 February when the Carnival was in full swing.”

Government is bracing for a barrage of lawsuits by those who were detained in relation to an alleged terrorist plot targeting recently concluded 2018 Carnival celebrations, Attorney General Faris Al-Rawi admitted yesterday.
